Horner, age 21, on Jan. 23, 1924 in Baca Co., CO. - In Memory of Elvin Monroe Fowler by John Nelson - Elvin Monroe Fowler arrived to bless the home of Richard Monroe and Delilah (Wren) Fowler on June 26, 1898 in "Indian Territory" at Whitehead, Garvin Co., OK near Paul's Valley. In 1907, his folks moved to Baca Co., CO, and homesteaded south of Stonington, When just a boy of nine, Monroe helped the railroad men by being a water boy. As he grew into his teens, he helped drive freight wagons from Liberal, KS to Springfield, CO because there was no railroad available. His mother died when he was fourteen, so he and his sister Ethyl had to take much of the responsibility for the other children. In the 1920's, he ran a mail route in the county and helped R. B. Holt stake out the town of Walsh before it was settled. On Jan. 23, 1924, Monroe was married to Clara Horner, and the Lord blessed this union with seven children. During the 1930's and early 40's, in order to support the family, he worked on W. P. A. building bridges, and also farmed for different farmers in the county. He was a loving, gentle, and even tempered father and friend. The family moved to the Cassville, MO area in 1948, where he purchased a farm and dairy cattle and also helped to build Camp Crowder. He stayed in MO until his wife Clara passed away in 1955. Monroe moved back to Baca Co. in 1955 and lived out his last years in Walsh. In 1967, he married Maude Hannafious and with her gained 2 step-children. Maude's health failed, and she was taken from him in 1980. Monroe then joined his life in marriage with Odessa Bohl and her five children and their families in 1981. Odessa's children and grandchildren really made him a part of their family and brought much joy to his heart. Her children cared for and ministered to him in so many ways that Monroe felt that he was especially blessed. Odessa went to be with the Lord in 1989. Monroe continued to live in their home, working in his garden which was his pride and joy, driving to visit his many friends, and enjoying the others who stopped by. Linda James, a special friend to Monroe, was always willing to go beyond the call of duty to see that he was taken care of, and she did an excellent job. Monroe also appreciated his two special nephews, Cecil and Bud Silbey, who always stopped by to visit and help with whatever he needed. Monroe became a child of God at a tent revival in Stonington, CO, when he was around twenty. One thing he desired of his Heavenly Father in his last years was that he would never have to go to a rest home, and God Graciously granted his desire. After his recent illness hospitalized him and led to his passing on Sept. 28, 1997 at the age of 99 years and 3 months, he went to his Heavenly home. Monroe was preceded in death by his parents, Richard and Delilah; his wives, Clara, Maude, and Odessa; his sisters, Ethel Silvey, Eva Dapron, and Edna Coulter; his brothers, Elmer, Clarence, and Cleo; and his half sister Audrey Garman. He leaves to cherish his memory his seven children and their families: his son Calvin and wife Pearl of Liberal, KS, and their three children; his three daughters, Marie McCoy and husband Bob of Wichita, KS, and their three children, Edith Trahern and her daughter of Shelby, MT, and Edna Davis of Shell City, MO and her four children; his other three sons Fred and wife Ann and their three children; Eddie and wife Nadine and their three children; and John and wife Judy and their two children; one sister Effie Stayton; one half-brother E.

Research Note: July 24, 1920, Cassville Democrat - Capt. Wm. Holliday Dead - Capt. Wm. Holliday of Mineral Spring, died Tuesday afternoon at his home there, after a continued sickness of sometime, aged about 79 years. He joined the Union Army in the sixties and after the war, he located in Kansas, and came to Barry County 30 years ago. He was commander of the Cassville Reunion for many years and aided in making it a success. He exemplified his interest in its being a success each year. For several years, he could not act as Commander on account of his health, but when possible, always attended. The funeral was delayed until Thursday until the arrival of a daughter from Idaho, who came Thursday and interment was made in Mineral Spring Cemetery. Death has claimed another one of our aged citizens and it is singular that he and J. R. Lee who were connected with the reunion, should be called home so near the same time. - Cassville Democrat, July 31, 1920 - William Holliday was born near Murphysboro, Ill., June 20, 1841 and was a son of Stephen A. and Rebecca (Will) Holliday, and died July 20, 1920 at 2:30 p.m., age 79 years and 1 month. He was reared in a very devout Lutheran home and his ancestors for several generations were strict members of this faith. At the age of 17 years, he became a member of the Lutheran Church and remained faithful to this early training and church until his death. He enlisted as a volunteer soldier in the Union Army in August 1861, and served his country 3 years and 1 month being honorably discharged in September 1864. He served in Co. H. 27th Ill, Infantry. He was twice wounded while in the service. He was always loyal to his country and it was his delight to encourage the young to acts of loyalty. Dec. 15, 1864, he was married to Sarah E. Hall, who died Nov. 17, 1870. To this union was born two daughters, who are Mrs. Mary R. Hughes of Murphysboro, Ill., and Mrs. Margaret Cooper of Coffeyville, Kan. May 18, 1871, he was married to Rhuey J. McClure who died Aug. 19, 1912. To this union were born Mrs. Ruth Pelzer of Urbana, Ill, Mrs. Clarinda Mullens of Pagoda Springs, Col., Mrs. Della Howard of Baxter Springs, Kan., Dan Stephen of Mineral Springs, Mo., and George Thomas of Dykes, Colorado. Oct. 13, 1913, he and Mrs. Sarah A. Wilmit were married and she survives him. He had been sick since February, when he had the flu. Since then such a complication of disease devolved that medical skill failed to relieve him. He was a patient sufferer through it all. Everything that a faithful wife and attentive neighbors could do to ease his intense suffering was done, but to no avail. He was a faithful husband, a kind father, a loyal citizen and a true friend. Rev. Ed Chappell of Cassville conducted funeral services, S. M. Cozad? Of this city, made a good talk and old comrades acted as pallbearers. The remains were interred in the cemetery at that place. | Obit Donna Cooper Online Obit Phyllis Long Photo Diana Cope |

A short time prior to his death, Mr. Loftin had stopped at the Mr. Busse's home about one and a half mile east of the Scroggin's place to warm. While there he complained of feeling bad but owing to his poor health for the past year his aliment was not considered serious.

He had been bothered with internal aliments for several months but had not been seriously sick at any time. The deceased was born in Polk County, MO, Jan. 13, 1851. He moved to this county about 27 years ago where he resided until death. As a citizen he enjoyed the confidence and respect of a large acquaintance of this county. He leaves a widow and six children.

The stabbing occurred about 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon at a ball game at Oak Ridge. Ennes bled profusely when struck by Luney and before he could be brought to Cassville to have his wounds dressed he was very weak and in a dangerous condition. Car trouble delayed getting him to town. His wounds were dressed by physicians Chandler and Bailey. They found that Ennes had received a serious wound in the left side of the back under the shoulder blade and another in the left side under and in front of the left arm under and in front of the left arm pit. The back wound was very deep and looked serious for sometime. Luney was arrested Saturday night upon a charge of felonious assault and brought to Cassville by Sheriff Houston and Deputy Reed. He succeeded in making bond Sunday for his appearance for preliminary hearing which is set for Sept. 13. The trouble between Luney and the Ennes boys is said to have come up over an account which Luney owes Mel Ennes for the season on a colt. Luney and Mel Ennes had been having trouble over the account. While Mel Ennes was in the military service his brother, Eldon, looked after his stock. Only in the way was Eldon interested in the trouble. At the Oak Ridge ball game Saturday the quarrel was renewed between Mel Ennes and Luney. Luney is said to have drawn a knife and Mel Ennes picked up a rock. Luney then jumped out of the way of Mel and attacked Eldon who was standing a few feet away and stabbed him. Mr. Luney claims that he used the knife to defend himself when hit by rocks thrown by the Ennes boys. Ennes is getting along fine and his physicians believe him to be out of danger. | Headstone Norma Hayward Online Newspapers Phyllis Long Photo Diana Cope |
